We also need to talk about OG.. this is his first time play 70+ games in since his ROOKIE YEAR. I LOVEEEEEEEEE OG's game but he is also a risk factor. And did we luck out this year? He is also make big $$$ for a 3rd/4th option. Do you look into trading him?

In the end, every team is looking to balance their books and stars wil be traded on a discount. OG might be enticing for some teams.

Yeah I don't get the Giannis dream anyways even if we traded for Giannis, whatever it would cost us would leave us with major holes at the big man spot.. I don't think Brunson and Giannis and a skeleton roster is enough to do anything more than we did this year..


Yah real cool to sell me out in the GT and throw me under the bus's real Knick brotherhood, wouldn't done/said that sh*t to even the worst Knick fan in the world

Maybe don't act like a clown on the GB and make us Knicks fans look horrible and give other teams fans easy fodder to mock us with your always moving goal posts. Why can't you just be normal over there.

I would actually do this trade. I love KAT, love his modern game. I've said this a few times already, I've always thought putting effort on defense is half the battle. He does that but holy fck, he is dumb as rocks on the defensive end but then is Albert Einstein on the offense. I don't get it.

With KD, you have a bucket getter and will actually demand the ball from Brunson during crunch time. Too many times KAT is sitting somewhere and watching Brunson. KD is also a great help defender and perimeter defender. KD also has 2 years left on the deal compare to KAT.


another ball handler and creator too. it's a much better fit. gonna have to find a way to get a decent backup center too. don't know if capela or horford will take the tax mle. seems too hopeful.

Theres good knicks fans, but this is fitting punishment to the obnoxious fanbase and extension- players. You reap what you sow. Congrats on your championship in the 2nd round of the playoffs this year, a full bill of health and still couldnt knock off the pacers, got done in by Thomas Bryant Of all ppl, and Obi Toppingg

"But we already know dudes not sticking to the D plan" no we don't. KAT sucks in drop cover, you think he's doing it by choice? No. Thibs for some reason is forcing drop coverage on the team when last year we didn't do that crap.

That YouTuber 'Awful coaching ' used to praise the Knicks and Thibs for being one of the few teams last year not to do drop coverage in the playoffs, and now Thibs decides to run it this year for some reason.

Thibs has no problem benching a player he is fed up with. If KAT went rogue he wouldn't have played the most minutes on the team tonight.

Guys just be saying whatever to push their narratives.

Thibs can go too. This was to me the most winnable series. Lesser players dominated us

Orlando will get healthier, better and we struggled against them

In your premise that would mean the Knicks would not have the ability to get better, which is not the case…


My thought process is that we are most likely keeping the core and building a better bench.

I do believe Detroit will make a move for a huge piece and Orlando will get another 3 & D to their already staunch defense.

He's a perfect example of having a great coach. This is why the knicks need a Brillant coaching mind leading this team. Thibs can not
get the full potential out of this group.

There is zero chance the Knicks trade Brunson. Zero.


Jalen and Giannis don't fit unless Giannis moves to the Center position.


Whether it does or doesn't, Giannis sets better picks than KAT. Having a better pick partner helps. Especially since with Giannis, you ain't picking and popping. I don't know what's JB's problem doing pick and pops with KAT. I remember he did them well with KP, but maybe I'm not remembering it well.

Horrible cuz I said Detroit wouldn't be tough? And we'd beat Boston? If we don't choke away game 1 this series isntmuch different and not far off from what I said, let's all sit like neutered dogs so other teams who talk sh*t about our fanbase regardless like us....

I think Jalen would be the one going out for Giannis, since Giannis would be the PG on the Knicks.


Leon rose isn’t trading Jalen **** Brunson dude!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Stop the Bs!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


If Milwaukee says they want Jalen for Giannis, you think Leon is saying "no"? :lol:

I don't think he will be fired because he met his expectations. Before the season started, we were supposed to make it to the ECF. We did that and we got it to game 6.

Yes because I think they'll ask for the players feedback and it won't be good, despite what they say in public. And it will be a big issue when trying to attract free agents and making trades.


We should make a sig bet

:nod:

The "bum" Obi Toppin that Thibs had no use for was in crunch time making backbreaking plays en route to our elimination.

KAT

JB type of players are not hard to find.

Call Dallas and see if they want JB back for that 1st pick.

Hire Mike Malone and run it with Kolek aka Steve Nash.


Wth


Sell high before he starts demanding max money. Hali and Nehmbard made him look average.

You're right. Our eyes are lying. The experts on this -- who were calling this **** out during the game -- are lying.

Also, it's **** Thibs, dude.

Giannis is going to be forced to shoot mid-range shots on pick and rolls with Jalen because teams are going to drop, since he isn't a threat when it comes to shooting.
